NanoStation Loco not communicating with router

R7500 router will not commuicate with UBNT NanoStation loco with static IP address
Hi I am new to this site, and don't always understand all of the terminolgy but I would like to get to the bottom of this issue. I have been working on setting up a pair of Ubiquiti NanoStation Loco M2's with limited success of them communicating with my router. The M2 radio's do not seem to be the issue after countless hours working through their customer support. Purpose of set up: Internet blasted out to my detached garage. My set up is as follows : Cable modem------ R7500 (192.168.1.1)--------Nano Station Loco (radio 1)set up as bridge Access Point (static IP 192.168.1.2) ------- wireless to NanoStation Loco (radio 2)set up as a bridge Station (static IP 192.168.1.3) If I set a static IP on my comuter and use Radio 1 as the gateway, I can go in and change the settings, and see that the radio's are communicating with good signal strength. Even after a number of router and modem resets my router does not see them. I also tried to set the radio's so they would auto configure to an IP address, but again the router did not communicate with them. I did manage to connect a couple of different times by "forcing communication" through a switch, but every time I reset something they disapear again. After sharing this with Ubiquiti they suggested the following: "This seems to be an IP conflict issue, it seems that the DHCP server configured on your router is causing this issue. I'd suggest re-creating the DHCP server and see if the issue resolves, as the issue doesn't persists with Static IP configured on the radios." --------------- I will admit to being a little new to some of this, but after going through the manual, and the advanced utility, I could not find any where to do this. Any suggestions on why they may not be connecting or visible to my router under normal circumstances? Thank youSolved10KViews0likes14Comments
